I sat atop the roof so high, And sang my mournful lullaby.
Years went and the tears went Pouring down my face. A crier At heart, emotions run my game, Though I was never taught how to play.
When the going gets tough, Pull yourself up by the bootstraps, Making sure not to hang yourself In the process of “equality for all”.
There’s nothing equal about love, and There’s nothing fair about emotional reactions. Both happen spontaneously, subconsciously, And Suddenly You’re living a life you never imagined.
I’m tired of singing this sad soliloquy. It’s time to leave the roost.
